About your Great White Shark Port Lincoln Day Tour

Shark Diving in Port Lincoln is the ‘home’ for Australia’s Great White Shark diving day trips as well as the only place where you can experience commercially run cage dives with Great White Sharks. Cage dives are suitable for both certified and uncertified divers. NO diver qualification or previous experience is required. So let’s get your adrenaline pumping and help you get up close and personal with a Great White Shark, believe me, you’ve got to experience it to believe it.

Great White Shark Cage Diving Port Lincoln

You will experience a full day on the water (between 12 – 14 hours) to view Great White Sharks in their natural habitat. This is one of the most confronting and adrenaline pumping day dive tours available.
